Zechariah (Concordia Commentary)

The Book of Zechariah is for everyone living in wreckage and ruin. God has called each of us to rebuild something. Just as God called Zechariah, let?s roll up our sleeves and start rebuilding. It takes planning, prayers, endurance, and great determination. It is not by might nor by power, but by God?s Holy Spirit that we rebuild the ruins. The wreckage can rise again!This commentary approaches the Book of Zechariah by reading the book as literature, paying attention to the use of rhetoric as history, and understanding the surrounding events in the ancient Near East as theology. As R. Reed Lessing meticulously walks through the text of this Minor Prophet, understand how God does big things with small days and small people with their small stuff.
